World Sight Day Challenge: It's a Bake Sale!

Celebrating the World Sight Day Challenge

We care about our patients and about protecting your vision; we are also concerned about people around the world who lack access to quality vision care. Becaus of this, our practice Clarity Eye Care will participate in teh World Sight Day Challenge during October.

The World Sight Day Challenge is a campaign coordinated by Optometry Giving Sight to raise funds for projects that provide vision care, local training and infrastructure support for people who are blind or vision impaired simply because they don't have access to an eye exam and a pair of glasses. Children are especially vulnerable. Providing vision correction to a school-age child can literally transform their entire life.

"...helping to give sight to people in need..."

Our practice will raise funds for the World Sight Day Challenge by making a donation, suggesting donations for doing adjustments during the month of October, and hosting a bake sale from October 8th to October 14th. We will have cookies, cakes, brownies, cupcakes, and bars! Anybody is welcome to stop by and help out a great cause!

Please join us in helping to give sight to people in need by scheduling your next appointment during October or just come in to make a donation.
Your donation will help support programs like the Mozambique Eye Care Project, that are trainingn local optometrists to ensure that in time, no child in that country will be limited by poor vision. Loid Semente (above) is one of the students training to become an optometrist with teh Mozambique Eyecare Project, supported by Optometry Giving Sight. Loid will be one of the first optometrists in her country.

She is passionate about optometry because of the significant impact it can have for the people of Mozambique. "Sight is empowering. For some, access to eye care is the first step towards getting an education, or providing for your family," she said.
